    How many of you Canadians think it would be a big deal to be referred to 'illegals' if all of a sudden there was a mass migration of canucks to the USA?

    • with Trudeau at the helm it could be reality.hotroddy
    • I dgafnb
    • What's in a name? That which we call a rose, By any other name would smell as sweet.nb
    • Who cares, Canadians don’t give a hoot aboot fairy tale pipe dreams... we have all the syrup, the poutine, the beer and the beavers we needprophetone
    • if a bunch of trump rednecks made their way up north they'd be considered illegals?hotroddy
    • ^ Yes. If they came here illegally.monNom
    • I don’t get your question. Canadians moving south or Americans moving north?_niko
    • Our attitude would be singing “ I am an illegal alien, a Canadian in New York” any chance we got_niko
    • Either. What would offend you most?hotroddy
    • Are you afraid of Ryan gosling and Ryan Reynolds? lol Canadians are indistinguishable from most yanks. Some of the US’s biggest stars are canucks_niko
    • Canaricans /Ameriadian?everyangle
    • Drake, weekend, beiber, the Ryans, half your hockey teams plus a handful of nba stars. Plus we’re all educated and sort of literate_niko
    • Oh and we speak a version of American that we call “English”_niko
    • the queens englishhotroddy
    • canadians have always had a place in american cinema. Many played roles in the
      'midwest'. AKA Candy in chicago. Akroid in chicago
      hotroddy
    • Cananda's relationship with 'the midwest' is what allowed the incredible canadian talent to become relatable to USAhotroddy
    • canadian comedians are the watered down british comedian. their wit just as quick as their british counter part but still relatable for americans. :/hotroddy
    • One thing that is a bummer about demonizing “illegals” is that immigrants (incl illegals) pay a high rate of taxes compared to services receivednb
    • I would find that to be annoying. Actually I currently find that to be annoyingnb
    • you pay your income taxes but don't receive the benefits?hotroddy
    • the list of jewish canadians actors is just as long.hotroddy
    • You get benefits like infrastructure but you don’t get benefits like unemployment insurance, Medicare, etc.nb
    • I personally know illegal immigrant families that have been paying taxes for 30+ years just in case the govt ever decides to offer them a path to citizenshipnb
    • They get none of the social safety net benefits and are at risk of deportation at any notice. But they keep on paying taxesnb
    • yes, you would want to prevent this at the border. otherwise what is the point of a borderhotroddy
    • The one benefit of USA is you see like 20-30 flavour options of those little icing covered Hostess pie things at the gas stationprophetone
    • Up north we have cherry and apple... see “getting in shape” threadprophetone
    • official term is irregular border crosser

    • Is this your worst fear, hotroddy, being labeled something YOU as a white Christian,feel is just a word for brown people you don’t like because you’re a racist?monospaced
    • What's in a name? That which we call a rose, By any other name would smell as sweet.hotroddy
    • pango that's because canadians respect borders.hotroddy
    • there are a few 'illegal' canadians out here in hollywood. They stick out like a sore thumb among the latinoshotroddy
    • Another racist troll campaign. How pathetic.CyBrainX
    • if there was a sudden influx of male fubar trump loving canadians I bet you'd have no quelms calling them illegals.hotroddy
    • cut the crap or put on your helmet and take a couple dabs of that hand sanitizer by your keyboard.hotroddy
    • No. It's not called illegal here because it is a legal process to claim asylum. Similar process exist in US too. But US politic prefers to dehumanize others.pango
    • hotroddy's new nightmare: https://broadcastdia…_niko
    • claim asylum the legal way at the port of entry. we know they aren't claiming asylum they are fleeing from destruction their socialist revolution they createdhotroddy
    • lol niko. and this

      hotroddy
    • how do you know they're not claiming asylum? socialist revolution they created? who? someone at the border? do you have a name?pango
    • "with Trudeau at the helm it could be reality." but he's already at the helm??
      what do you mean?
      pango
    • hotroddy, I don’t call anyone illegals. That’s a term only right wing cucks like you throw around to show everyone how gofdamned racist you are.monospaced
    • i think hotknobby ran away again.pango
    • ya he does that when he can't answer.pango
    • from 'illegal aliens', 'illegal immigrants', to 'undocumented migrants'. I'm sure you don't consider yourself a pedophile but a minor-attracted person. :)hotroddy
    • pango, Trudeau has been a disaster for Canada. That's what happens when you put a drama teacher at the helmhotroddy
    • Sure sure. But what do you mean it could happened when he's at the helm? Cuz he's already at the helm but it hasn't happened yet?pango
    • You've been evading the same question. Probably going to disappear again.pango
    • You think this is a gotcha moment to save face for not knowing the size of lake ontario? I was being hyperbolic. But with Trudeau at the helm you never know.hotroddy
    • lol meh i still don't know the size of ontario lake. quite frankly i just care about it.
      so you were being overly dramatic? he's been at the helm for almost 10
      pango
    • yrs and what you said hasn't happened yet.
      when is it going to happen?
      so you fell into strawman fallacy?
      pango
    • He’s a minority govt, and he is extremely unpopular. Let’s agree that he’s a terrible prime minister.hotroddy
    • sure. but it has been 8 yrs. when is what you said going to happened?pango
    • I didn't say it was happening. it was a joke not to be taken literally. But Canada was better off 10 years ago than it is today.hotroddy
    • oh so you were bullshiting. cool.
      better on what metric?
